Dear Wolfgang Denk,
Dear Marek Vasut,

Just curious: which method did you use to flash the final binary into the NAND? Did you boot the kernel and used mtd-utils?
Maybe we could add such info later into a README?
I just wrote the resulting u-boot.nand to the 0x0 of the NAND.
This is not exactly a very precise instruction...
Use simple "nand write" to flash the resulting image to address 0x0 of the nand, that's all.
How exactly do I write to NAND on a virgin (or bricked) system? I think Fabio's request makes a lot of sense - yes, you know how to do this, but I don't, and neither does the average user.
This will change anyway, as will the rest of the patchset as I will need to rework it on top of Benoit's patches.
Can we please document this? With sufficient detail everybody understands which tools you used to do this, and what the exact steps where to perform the operation?
Thanks.
Wolfgang Denk
Best regards, Marek Vasut
